Yammer Desktop Notifier

Not only does Yammer help organizations discover employees with hidden expertise or who are greatly appreciated by their coworkers, but it only includes a database featuring the conversations from which anyone can benefit.

Yammer Desktop Notifier is a small utility designed to help you keep updated with the news, events and topics that are being debated or discussed throughout your entire company or in your dedicated groups.

Following a swift and uneventful setup, you are required to enter your Yammer credentials in order to start using the application. As a side note, the archive contains two types of installers, and although both of them are functional, the MSI file mostly addresses SCCM or Group Policy.

While the tool does not have an interface per se, you can access and configure the utility from the System Tray. You will be happy to learn that it enables you to access your feeds, Inbox and notifications with just one click.

The idea behind the application is to provide you with a simple solution that permits you to receive notifications regarding the topics or conversations debated by your colleagues or groups on Yammer, but without keeping the IM client opened all the time. It can help employees stay focused on their task and get less distracted.

As far as the notifications you can receive are concerned, you can set the app to play sounds or alert you whenever you have new conversations in the Inbox, Yammer notifications, discussions in the entire companies or just specific groups you joined. The app also allows you to play a sound when you receive a new message.

In the eventuality that you are using Yammer in your corporate environment and would like to be up to date on the hot topics and events occurring in your company without keeping the IM client open at all times, then perhaps Yammer Desktop Notifier could lend you a hand.
